Most of COMARA communications is done by email. The email service specification
requires that an undeliverable email be returned to the sending address. In the past
we were able to determine which emails were bad by examining the returned emails.
Our current web hosting service decided to stop returning most bounced emails
sometime during 2013. As a result, we no longer know if the email addresses in
our database are valid. We will be taking some action to recover from this, but
it will take some time and may involve moving our domain [comara.org] to
a new web hosting company.

It is your responsibility to be sure we have your email address.
You can provide two
email addresses. In some cases, this may be a work email and a home email. In other cases
you may give us your primary email and a secondary one in case the primary address
isn't receiving email. We find that there are often three reasons people change email
addressses.

Retire or change jobs and the work email becomes invalid.

Change internet service providers. Previous email may become invalid.

Stop using an email address because of spam.

If you are not receiving COMARA email, here's what you can do.
Be sure we have two valid email addresses for you. You can verify the email addresses in your
profile by clicking the "Edit My Profile" button on the home page (after you sign in). You can also send your email address to to webmaster@comara.org.

In some cases, the email address in our database may be valid, but the mail provider refuses to deliver email from COMARA due to a faulty spam control. This can usually be resolved,
but we need to know.
We send email to two addresses: the primary email and an alternate email.

Since we currently do not have a way to know if emails are being delivered to any
email box, the list of members without email is suspended for now. After we can
change our service to send emails reliably, we will update the list and publish it here.
